Moonlight Demon (GL LITRPG)

Inhaling fresh air after having left the dump that was the portal realm, Ash grinned, spreading her arms so she could further feel the cold night air. Beside her, Yumi was trying to wipe off some of that black water from her face. 

"We... We were successful, now what?" 

Ash turned towards her and ran a demonic hand down her hair. 

"Maybe we could celebrate a little..." 

"...?" Yumi tilted her head. "Ash, control yourself. We are on an active battlefield." 

"So? I don't see any demons around us right now." 

Yumi's response was to narrow her eyes at her, looking at the demon as though she was disgusted. 

"Ugh, fine, fine. Sheesh, you're no fun," Ash said, giggling as she looked back towards the city. "Well, I'd say we're done for the night. 

"Oh? Is that so? There is still another portal." Yumi reminded her. 

"Yeah, but we were only able to get into the portal because that other group of poor unfortunate dudes got swept for us. Unless we can find a few volunteers again, then yeah, we're pretty much done here. So..." Ash extended a hand to Yumi. "How about I fly us back to the palace." 

"... I believe I have had enough of the sky for one day, no thank you." 

"Come onnn~" Ash smiled sweetly at her. "Your legs have to be tired after all that! Right? I just wanna thank you, you know? For all the help you gave me tonight." 

She moved closer, taking one of her hands lightly. As Yumi didn't move away, she took that as a good sign. 

"You... You are rather different when you're like this..." Yumi muttered. 

"Mhm," Ash nodded in agreement, "and I'll probably regret everything I do during this form as soon as it's gone, but, for now," she swept Yumi off her feet, literally, picking the woman up as she yelped and nearly dropped her naginata, "I'm just gonna enjoy it." 

And, with a slightly flustered Yumi in her arms, Ash flapped her wings and began flying back to the palace. 

Below them, Ash could see groups of injured soldiers and mages walking back to the Grey Chamber as well. She could barely see any demons though, which was curious.  Huh? Where did they all go? Was I right about them defending the other portal then?  Hm. So, in that case, what options do we have? 

It didn't take too long for them to arrive, and when they did, as Ash descended unto the road leading up to the massive grey building, a pair of knights flashed their weapons, holding them out as she landed in front of them. They looked shocked, but once they saw Yumi, who Ash placed down gently, they seemed to recognize them. 

"Is that the Savior?" One of them asked. 

"Yep, it's me," Ash replied, flipping her white hair back. "Let me in, I gotta go talk to your boss." 

With that out of the way, the gates opened and Ash walked in, quickly drawing the eyes of every citizen who was holed up inside.

Hm... How different do I look? Ash asked before she looked down at herself. Her body's muscles had grown slightly, making her arms, shoulders, thighs, and her abs far more prominent, but also pushing her chest and butt out enough to stretch her clothes enough to where Ash worried her top would snap any moment now.

I mean...  Ash smiled at herself.  Aside from the black stains from that gross shit I just came out of, I do look pretty fucking hot right now. 

Groups of men and women gasped and muttered amongst themselves as Ash moved with a smile on her face, walking through the Grey Chamber as if she owned it. Eventually, she reached the throne at the back where Eliza was currently sitting. 

And, quickly, she saw the Lord's eyes widen as Ash approached. The half-demon couldn't deny that it was fun eliciting that reaction from people. As she got closer though, she saw something. Eliza's eyes briefly showed a pair of hearts.  Wait, what?  Ash thought, stopping for a second. 

Why did that...? 

Then, almost as a reminder, a message popped up for Ash's eyes to see. 

Passive Effect: Aura of the Temptress

While in Demon Form: Lust (4/4), the bearer exudes a scent that allures, functioning as an Illusion spell and Charming any receptive individuals nearby. While charmed, an individual will follow most orders. If the individual's level is too high, this spell will fail.

Ash blinked. 

Oh. She looked back at Eliza.  Oh... So...

Ash nearly laughed, but she put that thought away for now. 

Eliza, though, breathed in and cleared her throat, closing her eyes as Ash reached her. Ash stood in front of her, looking down at the woman with a smirk. Eliza crossed her arms, apparently refusing to open her eyes again. 

"Savior... You seem... different." 

"Really? How?" Ash asked innocently. 

"... You smell awful." 

At that, Ash chuckled. I guess she's got some restraint. Good for her. 

"Well, the portal ended up throwing us into a swamp. We closed it though, so that's another one gone," Ash stated. "You'll have to come up with something for the next portal though." 

"Why is that?" 

"I didn't see any demons in the streets. I'm assuming they all went back to the other portal, and that they're probably just going to protect it from the inside, where they're strongest. So yeah, I don't like our chances with that one, but I'm sure you'll figure something out," Ash shrugged. 

"I see. Well, good. Good work, Savior," Eliza replied with a slightly raspy voice. 

"Thanks. Now, if you don't mind, I need a shower. Oh, and," she bent down a little, winking at her. "I expect a reward for all of this, remember that." 

"... I could give you a small one right now," Eliza said to her. 

"Hm? What's that?" 

"Use my personal shower," Eliza suggested. "It's much nicer than the guests'." 

"Really? Hm... Sure, I'll take you up on that."

"Good... Come with me." 

And so, Eliza stood and began walking ahead of Ash. Then, Ash looked back and found her group, talking amongst themselves behind a pillar. For a second, the Lust-ridden fog in her mind caused by this form dispersed, and Ash's smile faded, as she turned serious. 

Hm... I should check in on them, once I'm done.  Ash thought.  Make sure Keiko and the others are alright. I should probably make sure Kaori's still in a comfortable position too. I wonder if she's gonna be tossing and turning or if she's gonna be still during her time asleep. Yeah, I'll do that after this. 

However, as soon as she turned away from them, that grin came back. 

Now... Eliza. Where were we? She smirked as she followed the Lord through a door to the back, far behind the throne. 

They moved in silence throughout most of this. A few soldiers passed them by and each of them reacted the same way to the sight of Ash in her Lust Demon Form. They would reach for their weapon quickly and then calm down when they saw her Savior's Weapon tied to her waist. 

By the time they'd reached the Lord's chambers, Ash figured she must have scared the life out of at least ten different soldiers. 

"My shower is in there," Eliza gestured at one of the nearby doors. "I believe you'll be surprised at how pristine the space is," Eliza boasted. "Feel free to take as long as you want. I will remain here... just so that no one walks in on you." 

"Aw, my hero~" Ash teased her as she walked in. She quickly found that the door had a lock on it and she chuckled. 

Yeah. She's just hoping for something to happen, isn't she? Ash thought as she walked into the shower, finding that it was as clean and gorgeous as the Lord had promised, with a polished sink and toilet next to a large space where the shower was. Well, why not give her what she wants then? 

It didn't matter to her that outside of this form, she had never really found Eliza to be sexy. Right now, in this form, she felt like she could fuck any woman around her if they just asked nicely. So, as she took off her clothes and then washed off the black stains on her skin, she waited for a while, until she was at least mostly clean, and walked back towards the door. 

She opened it and Eliza turned towards her. 

"Oh? Done alr-" 

Before she could finish, Ash pulled her into the room. 

Eliza yelped and Ash closed the door, pinning her to it, putting a hand right next to her head, and leaning in. 

"S-Savior...? What is the meaning of this?" 

"Oh, you know what this is about," Ash told her, and Eliza's breathing sped up. Her face turned slightly red, but she couldn't tear her eyes away from Ash's own. Ash didn't say anything for a while. Instead, she simply smiled at the other woman, who then finally looked away. 

"... How did you know?" She asked, as meekly as Ash had ever heard her speak.

It was almost jarring how quickly Eliza let the veil slip, but Ash was fine with that. 

"The way you were looking at me out there, I felt like you were going to burn holes through my tits," Ash chuckled. "But, don't worry, I'm down to entertain you for a little while.. Just as long as you can handle all of this," she said as she waved her tail in the air behind her.
